I'm looking to replace my broken G4 with a new machine- either Mac Pro or G5- and run Final Cut Studio 2 on it.
I'm looking for good dual screen support (2 x Formac 20" TFT screens), fast rendering and possibly 3 x hard disk slots (1 x small-ish for system stuff, and 2 x 500GB drives on a software RAID for read/writing of audio and video).
Will an old(ish) G5 do? And if so, what sort of spec might I be looking for? Or will a Mac Pro just be so much better as to warrant the extra £8-900 that it would cost?
